Although I've spent the last few years architecting houses for the great and good of London the prospect of buying seemed miles off until recently (which perhaps says a lot about the state of the profession more than anything). I'm hoping the rumours of the Leyton market cooling are true because I'm starting to look around that area as there's no chance we can afford anywhere we've rented recently. The housing stock there seems to be reasonable, but badly configured / period features removed. Not that I've got much cash left over for DIY anyway.
